Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Mount Sinai

The lowest mountain in the Sinai
  a mountain cloaked in humility
unassuming, meek, of no particular prestige
  no fortress strong in times of siege

No high peak on which to stand
  no platform from which to view the sand
Little more than a glorified hill
  a mountain with neither ego nor will

Yet on its top God spoke to the world
  though of all men, only Moses heard
The meekest, most humble man who ever lived
  To him, God chose His Torah to give
